Oak Restoration Workshop for Southern Wisconsin Landowners
Join NRCS and conservation partners to learn about oak restoration and the cost-share programs available to Wisconsin landowners.
Registration
Registration includes lunch and walking tour of the Three Waters Reserve.
This comprehensive workshop welcomes landowners from Dane County, and neighboring counties, who want to learn more about the financial and technical assistance available to support their oak savanna and woodland restoration projects. Participants will hear from ecological restoration experts, landowners sharing real stories about their restoration journeys, and conservation professionals who will explain some of the financial and technical assistance available to Wisconsin landowners.
The NRCS, American Bird Conservancy (ABC), and other key partners, are working together to improve oak ecosystem health in northeastern Illinois and southeastern Wisconsin. Through the NRCS Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP), conservation planning, and financial assistance is available to forest landowners located within high-priority areas of the Great Lakes region.
